Gravitational Potential Field for Mineral Exploration Sikar District of Rajasthan
Ravi Ande
Abstract: This paper title argue is Gravitational potential field method’ for mineral exploration. Certain ore deposits, most notably copper-lead-Zinc-uranium (Cu-Pb-Zn-U) deposits, demonstrably affect the local heat flow and ground temperature conditions at Sikkar Districts Rajasthan. The physics of steady state conductive heat flow is mathematically the same as gravitational acceleration, with buried heat sources analogous to buried masses. Detecting the surface signature of a buried heat source can therefore yield direct evidence of an ore body. The physics is robust, appropriate tools exist for the collection of heat flow data for exploration, and some simple strategies could yield valuable additional information about the subsurface for small marginal cost. Gravity and magnetic methods, which are discussed in this article, are extremely useful in both mineral and exploration. Geophysicists and Atomic mineral Division the knowledge and appreciation of these techniques tend to be comparatively thin. Rooted in over-specialized college training, a too-narrow focus on only some geophysical methods impoverishes Cu-pb-Zn –U exploration if potential- field surveys are underutilized. By limiting geophysicists’ ability to switch between Uranium and mining industries, it restricts their employment flexibility and career choices. Key words: Cu-Pb-Zn-U, potential fields, Gravity and Magnetic, Exploration geophysics.
Keywords: Cu-Pb-Zn-U, potential fields, Gravity and Magnetic, Exploration geophysics
